Sub-industry · Bars & Nightlife
One board decides who's in, what's held, and how full the room is.
We build the guest-list agent, the table and bottle-service board, and the live capacity count that keep VIPs recognized, promoters credited, and the door honest about the room. Every night, the quiet ones included.

The list
Open past midnight
tomorrow's names start coming in tonight
Where the night breaks
A night's worth of pressure, from doors-open to close
The list lives in someone's head
A guest list split across a promoter's phone and a clipboard falls apart the moment a line forms.
Tables held on a text, no deposit
A table promised by DM with nothing behind it is a table that never shows and never gets resold.
Regulars go uncarded and unrecognized
A guest who's spent a season's worth of Saturdays here still waits in the same line as a walk-up.
Event nights outrun the list
A ticketed night needs entry and capacity that hold up under real demand, and a printout at the rope won't do it.
Capacity turns into a guess
Losing an accurate count of who's in the room turns the door into a bottleneck and a real safety risk.
Promoters go uncredited, slow nights stay slow
Without attribution, a promoter has no reason to keep bringing bodies, and a quiet Tuesday has no reason to fill.
What we build
On the board, every night
Guest-list & door-agent texting
A text asking to get on the list gets answered in seconds, matched to the roster, and tagged VIP or promoter before the guest is even in line.
Table & bottle-service booking
Tables and booths hold against a real minimum spend, with a deposit taken up front and the hold released automatically if the party doesn't show.
Capacity & last-call tracking
A live headcount runs against the room's real capacity, with alerts before it's full and a clean cutoff as last call approaches.
77% full · alerts fire at 90%
Promoter attribution & slow-night win-back
Every booking is credited to the right promoter with payout-ready tallies, and quiet nights get automated re-engagement to bring the regulars back.
Runs in the background, feeding payout and promo lists automatically.
Behind the rope
A text about a table is answered like it matters
A guest asking for a table on a promoter's list shouldn't wait for a reply while the line moves on without them. The agent matches the name, holds the table against a real minimum, and credits the promoter before the group even gets to the rope.
Matches names to the list before a guest reaches the rope
Confirms table minimums and deposits before the night starts
Credits every booking back to the right promoter
Keeps a live count against capacity as the room fills
Every hold shown here writes back to the board and the promoter's tally, styled in your accent once it's live.
How it runs
From one shadowed night to a board that runs itself
Shadow a real night
We work a real service at the door and on the floor to learn how the list, the tables and the rope actually run on a busy night.
Wire the list and the floor
We connect guest-list, ticketing, and table-booking tools with deposits so nothing is held on a promise alone.
Put the door on the board
We give the door one live view of the list, VIPs, tables, and capacity, and launch it supervised on a real night.
Run every night, tune monthly
We monitor check-ins, no-shows, and promoter credit, and tune the board every month as the room changes.
We build on top of the guest-list, ticketing, and POS tools you already run. No rip-and-replace.
Connects to your stack
It plugs into the systems the door already runs
Guest-list & ticketing platforms
Lists, RSVPs, and ticketed events stay synced to one live roster at the door.
POS & bar tabs
Table and bottle-service minimums reconcile against what's actually rung at the bar.
SMS & messaging
List requests, confirmations, and promoter updates run from your own number.
Payments & deposits
Deposits and prepaid minimums are taken securely ahead of the night.
ID & age-verification tools
Door checks stay compliant without slowing the line down.
Review platforms
Automatic requests for the reviews that decide next Saturday's line.
What changes
A door that stops running on memory
The rope never becomes the bottleneck
Names are matched and cleared before a guest reaches the door, so the line moves instead of piling up.
Every table is worth booking
Minimums and deposits are confirmed up front, so a held table either shows or gets resold. It never just sits empty.
VIPs are recognized, not carded like a stranger
A regular or a promoter's guest is flagged the moment their name hits the list, long before anyone has to flag down a manager.
Slow nights get worked back onto the calendar
Promoter credit and win-back offers turn a quiet Tuesday into a night worth showing up for.
Send us tomorrow's list
Give us one night's guest list, table plan, and promoter roster. We'll run it live on the board (check-ins, minimums, capacity) so your team can see exactly how the door holds up under a real crowd.

Every room in the group runs its own board, tuned to how it books, seats, and fills.
Questions
What bar and venue operators ask first
Can it take table and bottle-service bookings with a deposit?
Yes. Tables and booths hold against a real minimum spend with a deposit taken up front, and the hold releases automatically if the party never shows.
How does it handle guest lists and VIPs?
Incoming requests are matched to the roster and tagged VIP or promoter the moment they come in, so the door works from one live list, with no phone or clipboard to juggle.
Can it run a ticketed event night?
Ticketing and capacity are built to hold under real demand, so entry stays controlled and the count stays accurate even on your biggest night of the month.
Does it track capacity accurately enough to trust at the door?
The board keeps a live headcount against your room's real capacity, with alerts before it's full and a clean cutoff as last call approaches.
Can it credit promoters and help fill slow nights?
Every booking is attributed back to the right promoter with payout-ready tallies, and quiet nights get automated win-back offers to fill the room.
